Blog Housekeeping [43]

Question: Do you draft reoccurring posts (weekly memes, wrap-up posts, etc) to make scheduling easier? If you don't, is there a reason?

Update:

review archive - are you responsible for sites other than your own? Don't forget about those

sidebar - check for buttons or links for events that have ended. Have any new events coming up? Now's the time to add them.

reading challenges - update your progress, add links to
challenges where you can link up. If you're a challenge host, do you try
to comment on linked reviews? Now's your chance!

blogrolls - clean 'em up!

crosspost - do you crosspost to Amazon, B&N, Goodreads,
Library Thing? Don't forget to add your reviews to Netgalley or
Edelweiss for those ARCs.

check your subscription and social media links - if this
isn't something that you normally check, now's an excellent time to
make sure it's doing what it should be doing. (check out Felicia's Tech Tips for ideas on what to do if you're getting errors on your subscription link)

review your profiles - when was the last time you updated your Goodreads or Facebook profiles? Is everything up to date?

Get ahead:

We're at the halfway point for August. Have you planned out
the rest of the month? Are you working on next month's schedule? Do
what you can when you have a few minutes to spare so you don't feel
overwhelmed later.
